Chapter 98 I Call Her Sister

The water temperature of natural hot springs in the natural environment varies, but the water temperature of the hot springs here in the secret valley is just slightly higher than human body temperature.

Taking a hot spring bath is different from taking a bath, and natural hot springs do not mean that they do not require maintenance.

A plan to build a hot spring pool came to Lubian's mind.

First, they needed a dressing room so he and Chenxiang could change before soaking in the hot springs, and also a place to store their belongings. This would prevent their clothes from being stolen. The Cowherd stealing the Weaver Girl's clothes and Zhu Bajie stealing the Spider Spirit's clothes were both examples of this.

Secondly, you need to rinse your body before taking a hot spring bath to keep your body clean.

It is also necessary to set up the water outlet and inlet at the appropriate location of the hot spring pool, and change the water in the hot spring pool frequently to keep the water clean.

The rest involves environmental improvements around the hot springs. Open-air hot springs still require a wind and rain shelter above them, otherwise debris and fallen leaves will fall into the hot springs, requiring laborious cleaning. After a soak, the body is left defenseless and vulnerable to external pathogens.

Until the renovation is complete, no one on the road wants to enjoy the hot springs.

They took stones from the mountains and taught Chenxiang how to polish the stones on the roadside. The two of them paved the ground with stone slabs and built a house with wood. It took them more than half a month to transform the hot spring in the secret valley from a wild hot spring into a hotel hot spring.

A two-story wooden building for rest was built in the valley. There is a corridor leading directly to the hot spring from the small building. You don’t have to worry about falling due to the slippery ground when walking on the rough bluestone slabs. The hot spring house cannot be blown in by wind or rain, and it is even more impossible for people to peek at it.

This was originally the private natural hot spring of the Cangshan Goddess. When the roadside was renovated, they did not forget to divide the large hot spring pool into two halves, one half belonged to them and the other half belonged to the Cangshan Goddess.

"I didn't realize you were so particular."

"How could you wait this long?"

After the hot spring renovation was completed, the three of them enjoyed the hot spring. The Cangshan Goddess talked to the roadside on the other side of the hot spring pool through the wooden wall.

“It’s not a matter of being particular, but rather not wanting to have a bad hot spring experience.”

"Is not it?"

"Soaking in a hot spring should be a relaxing experience. There's no need to worry about other things while soaking in a hot spring."

"I remember the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl."

"Legend has it that several fairies came down to earth and bathed in the lake. The other fairies returned to heaven, but the Weaver Girl remained in the mortal world because her clothes were stolen."

"...You have a point." The Cangshan Goddess replied.

"Legend has it that the Cowherd not only watched the Weaver Girl bathe, but also stole her clothes."

"Have you ever worried about being peeped at when you took a hot spring bath here before?" asked Lubian.

“…” The Cangshan Goddess did not answer.

She was naturally worried about this problem, so she used magic to hide the valley and prevent mortals from approaching.

"What is the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl?" Chenxiang asked curiously.

"Oh, Chenxiang, you don't know?"

"Well, this story..."

"Okay, I'll tell you today."

"Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a poor boy named Cowherd..."

"...And so, every year on the seventh day of the seventh month, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl would meet on the Magpie Bridge."

"..." After Lubian finished telling Chenxiang the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, Chenxiang fell into silence and was thinking again.

Why is this happening?

"July 7th is the Chinese Valentine's Day. The Dali Kingdom is different from the Central Plains. There is no custom of celebrating the Chinese Valentine's Day." said Lubian.

"Come to think of it, the Qixi Festival is approaching."

"One day in heaven is one year on earth. Does that mean the Weaver Girl in heaven can meet the Cowherd every day?" A question arose on the roadside.

"Wrong." said the Cangshan Goddess.

"They transformed into two stars, Vega and Altair."

“Two stars are separated by the Milky Way, yet they can only meet once a year.” “Their children also turned into stars.”

"The ending of their story seems happy, but it is not."

"This Cowherd is really hateful." said the Cangshan Goddess.

"Yeah." Lubian also agreed with the Cangshan Goddess's opinion.

"Chenxiang, men and women should be careful and careful. You must never do anything wrong."

"I'm warning you right now. If you notice someone bathing in a lake or river, leave immediately and don't look at what's in the water."

"Don't pick up clothes you see lying around, and don't be curious and look for the owner of the clothes."

"By the way, there's more..."

"Chenxiang, do you have a childhood sweetheart? Or did your parents ever promise you a marriage?"

"Well?"

"What is a childhood sweetheart?" Chenxiang was puzzled.

"Do you have any friends or playmates of the same age as you? They can be called your childhood sweethearts. Did you promise each other anything when you were playing together?" Lu Bian said seriously.

"Well……"

"Is that so?"

"What does it mean?"

"We're just friends who played together for a few days." Chenxiang said.

"Oh? Why only a few days?"

"Because we met in heaven, and then I returned to the human world."

"A child you know in heaven? Whose family in heaven has a child?" Some people on the roadside were confused.

"She is the youngest daughter of Tota Li Tianwang and the younger sister of Nezha the Third Prince. Her name is Li Zhenying." Chenxiang said.

"At that time, I didn't know about my uncle and mother. Nezha the Third Prince came to look for my uncle, and when he saw me alone, he took me to his house to play."

"What's that girl like?" people on the street started gossiping.

Lee Jung-young...

I remembered it on the roadside.

During the Journey to the West, the youngest daughter of Li Tianwang, the King of Heaven, was only seven years old. How old is she now?

"I call her sister. She looks so much like the Third Prince that sometimes I can't tell them apart."

"Sister Zhenying often plays with her brother's magic weapon."

"Hey..." Lubian laughed.

It's quite reasonable that Nezha, the Third Prince, who has a male-female appearance, looks very similar to his sister. And from what Chenxiang said, Nezha dotes on his sister, letting her play with all his magic weapons without any restrictions...

"Uh?"

I suddenly felt a little uneasy as I was walking on the roadside.

It seemed as if something terrible was foreboding.

In Journey to the West, Nezha cuts off his bones to repay his father and his flesh to repay his mother. Nezha's soul then travels to the Western Paradise to confide in Tathagata, who recreates his body in a lotus flower, bringing him back to life. The Buddha also gives Li Jing a beautiful, translucent golden pagoda containing relics, allowing Nezha to recognize the pagoda as his father and resolve their feud. If Nezha becomes disobedient, Li Jing can use the pagoda to pacify him.

The grudge between Nezha and Li Jing has never been resolved.

If Li Jing also doted on his youngest daughter Li Zhenying very much, and if his youngest daughter also did something wrong like Nezha did in the past, how would Tota Li Tianwang treat him?
